Use the following a few examples:

str1='this is my string'
StrCell2={'a','bd';'eft','aldjfal'}

s=input('please type in a string:\n','s')

thank you, but i have to introduce the array from keyboard in execution time

s=input('please type in a string:\n','s') this statement just allow me introduce one character but i have to introduce for example "Jennifer"

s=input('please type in a string:\n','s') this statement just allow me introduce one character but i have to introduce for example "Jennifer"

No, that statement stores all of the characters.

Note that in MATLAB, there is no string data type, and that strings are considered arrays of characters. If you were to use s(1) you would not be asking for the first string in s, you would be asking for the first character in s.
